CRIMINAL COURT-(TUESDAY.):: NEW COURT. Thomas Paul, an excavator, was indicted for stealing a silver watch case, a pencil-case, a pocket-book, and other articles, the property of the late Duncan Crawford, deceased. Another count charged the property as belonging to Charles James, Lord Bishop of London. Mr. Cuawoon stated the case for the prosecution at considerable length. Mr. PAYNE defended the prisoner. The Jury returned a verdict of Gailty, and the prisoner was ordered to be transported beyond the seas for seven years. lViggins was indicted for, that he being clerk to Mr. J. Tinsley, an attorney, his employer, did receive the sum of 11. 3s. on the 12th of May, and a further sum of 1/. on the 16th of May, for and on account of the said John Tinsley, and that !le afterwards did secrete, embezzle, and steal the same. Mr PHILLIPS stated the case for the prosecution. Mr. Paves addressed the Jury for the pis-men The Jury, after five minutes' consideration, returned a verdict of acquittal, accompanied with the following expression :—" The Jury think that not only the prisoner at the bar has been neglectful in this case, but likewise his master, Mr. Tinsley, therefore we present that his conduct is highly reprehensible, and likely to do great injury to prisoners who may be brought here for trial." The RECORDER admonished the prisoner as to his future conduct. The prisoner declared that he was sorry for what had occurred. SENTENCES UPON THE PRISONERS.

SHAKSPEARE.—A new work is announced for immediate publication, bearing the attractive title of " Shakspeare and Hie Friends." We understand that it is an historical romance, founded on the life of the immortal poet, and illustrating the state of society and manners during the reign of Elizabeth. The author's undertaking is a bold one; for to pourtray successfully the nu merous distinguished characters whom Shakspeare numbered among his friends, including the munificent Earl of Southampton, Ben Jonson, Burbage, and, indeed, almost all the master spirits of England's Golden Age, is a task excee,:ingly hard of accomplishment; not to speak of the difficulty of attempting faithfully to depict the " Poet of Nature" himself. The reader, too, will naturally look for some per sonation of the ambiguous " Friend" to whom the sonnets were ad. dressed. Whatever may be the character of the work however, its sub ject must cause its appearance to be looked fur with the greatest interest. RADICAL MEETING ON THE CALTON HILL. —On Monday evening a public meeting called by placards extensively circulated throughout the vity, was held on the Calton Hill, for the pur pose of ln.aring Mr. Collins of Birmingham develope a plan for organiz. ing the working.cla>ses into a union, for the purpose of obtaining Uni versal Suffrage, Annual Parliaments, and Vote by Ballot. Nearly two thousand persons were assembled on the hill; but, judging by the va. rious shows of hands which took place, about five hundred only took part in the proceedings ; the rest were present evidently from mere curiosity. --Scotsman. LADIES' FEET IN CHINA.—It appears very ridi culous to European eyes, to see an old lady, verging into dotage, be lieving all eyes are turned upon her in admiration, because her feet are no larger than those of a child five or six years of age. As she walks through the streets, her progressive motion would incline you to believe that she had had the misfortune to lose both her legs, and was obliged to get about as well as she was able on a couple of wooden stumps. You feel a great temptation to go up and offer the old lady the use of your stick to help her along, as she seems in danger of falling every moment. In this tottering manner they proceed, and if they wish to look behind them, they ars obliged to stop, and then steady themselves, while they gradually twist the whole body round as far as required. This feeble, helpless condition of the females is very much admired by the Chinese, who delight to see them in danger of falling. The women themselves make it one of their principal arts of attrarr;on to endeavour to walk, and thus shew their dependent situation. is very similar to the affected grace of some of our European de.l:93elles, who often exagge rate their natural timidity in order to rouse the protecting courage of the lords of the creation.— The Pan-qui in China. On Friday evening last, as Win. Lloyd, Esq., of Ludlow, was driving his children and the governess over Maryknoll, a portion of the harness gave way, on which the horse kicked and plunged, and ultimately set off at full speed down the hill towards Ludlow. On arriving at Whitecliffe, Mr. Lloyd was unable to keep the horse on the right road, and it ran down the activity with the greatest force, falling into a pit at the angle of the road, and being killed on the instant. The violent concussion threw one of the children completely over the driving -seat upon the horse, but it fortunately escaped without injury. The rest of the party, five in number, were thrown out, but escaped with a few bruises.—Worcester Journal. Hyde Park, on Saturday afternoon, was the scene of much animation, at four o'clock, it having become known that the Queen had resumed her equestrian exercises. Her Majesty was on horseback, with her suite, two hours►. On Friday night a party of six men attempted to steal the young rooks from their nests in the grounds of Intake, the resi dence of Mr. Ward. T he famil y bein g al armed by the barking of the house-dog, Mr. Ward, accompanied by one of his house servants, went out of the house to prevent the depredation from taking place, when the fellows knocked them down, and beat the servant with a pitch-fork in so cruel a manner that his death is hourly expected, no hopes being entertained of his surviving.—SWie ld The trade of Paisley is every day becoming worse, nor is there any prospect of improvement. The spring trade, with the exception of a comparatively small quantity of fancy goods, has proved an entire failure, as it nos been found impossible to realize cost prices for the grea';er part of goods Cla. have been made.—Greenock Ad vertiser. On Wednesday se'nnight a ti:e I.nke out in the plantations in the Fo rest of Dean, Gloucester, % ,„...h .ould not be got wider until nearly seventy-fl ve ,--porty of acres of beautiful timber, a,. the Crown, had been totally consumed. Between two and the.. . ,7 - - ered persons were employed in cutting passages in the plantation, order to draw off the dry fern and the cuttings and trimmings of last year, by which means the tire was kept from extending.— Cheltenham Gazette.

SlR,—My attention having been called to a paragraph in your Paper, of yesterday's date, which implies a doubt as to the cause f,f my losing the appointment of Vice-Chamberlain to her Majesty, I can have no he: i. tation in informing you that it was solely on account of my vote in favour of Sir George Sti icklares motion. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, Burlington House, May 23, 1838. CHARLES FITZROY. ELECTION COMMITTEES. (YESTERDAY. (From our Second Edition of last night.) DEVIZES.

Mr. Sergeant Mermveather, Mr. Thesiger, and Mr. ‘Vtangham, np. peared for the petitioners ; Mr. Austin, and Mr. Co!Immo for the sitting Member. Mr. Serjcant MEREWEATIMR opened the case, and explained that the return was questioned on account of a greater number of tendered votes on behalf of Mr. Heneage, which were refused, and which if accepted, would have given him the majority ; and there was also an allegation of bribery against the sitting Member. The Learned Sergeant went first into the case of the tendered and rejected votes, and the case of James Smallbones had not been concluded at half_ past three, when the Comiaittee adjourned. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, MAY 24, 1 38. WESTMEATH, Thy Commi t:.e met at half-past three, Mr. Robert Palmer in the Chair.

Captain MATTHEWS presented a petition from the Non-commis sioned Officers composing the late British Auxiliary Legion, complain ing of the non-payment of their claims by the Spanish Government, and praying that some measures might be adopted to enforce the payment. The Hon. Member gave notice that it was his intention to make a speci fic moCon on the subject. Mr. Serjeant J.. , -CKSCN presented a petition from Kilcronv, in county of Down, against the present system of national euucat.u,•. Abu petitions to the same effect from various parishes in Ireland.

Mr. HUMS: presented a petition from Bradley, West Riding of Yorkshire, praying that a clause might he introduced into the Factories Regulation Bill, allowing children to labour eleven hours in the factories. REDUCTION OF POSTAGE. Mr. HUME presented a petition from Wisbeach, setting forth the preposterous system of the present postage laws, and recommending Mr. Hill's plan, and the adoption of an uniform system, by which the postage of letters might be somewhat in proportion to their size. As an illus tration of the absurdity of the present system, the Hon. Member ex hibited to the House a letter, consisting of a sheet a yard and a half square, which was only liable to a single postage ; and another letter, weighing only 7i grains, which was charged with a double postage.— (Laughter.) A more preposterous state of the law could not be imagined, and he trusted that an alteration would soon be effected. Mr. WALLACE presented petitions from the National Debt Assu rance Company, from the Sun Fire Office Insurance Company, and seve ral other parties, in favour of a uniform rate of postage.

The Right Hon. and Learned Gentleman gave notice that it was his intention to introduce certain amendments in the Bill in order to meet the case of Mr. Smith and others. Mr. !LINDE presented a petition from Newcastle, praying for some measure for the better observance of the Sabbath. MEDICAL CHARITIES BILL. Mr. LUCAS enquired of the Hon. Member for Roscommon (Mr. French) whether he would consent to commit his Medical Charities Bill pro forma to-night, and strike out the eleven clauses that were to be struck out, and put in the four clauses that were to be put in. Mr. F. FRENCH, in answer, said the Hon. Member had anticipated exactly the course he had intended to pursue. Sir ROBERT PEEL trusted, after that course was pursued, that sufficient time would elayse after the printing of the Bill to give distant parties—for instance, the Universities of Scotland—ample notice. Mr. F. FRENCH said that any time necessary for that purpose would of course be given. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL bore testimony to the deep interest taken in this measure by the Universities of Scotland. sir ROBERT PEEL—I speak as Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow, and of course feel a very deep interest.—(Laughter.) BANK OF IRELAND. Mr. HEN ELY GRATTAN presented a petition from inhabitants of the county of Westmeath, against the renewal of the charter of the Bank of Ireland. IRISH MUNICIPAL REFORM. Sir R. PEEL said—Sir, I some days since promised that I should give liberal notice of the course which I should resolve to pursue on the motion of the Noble Lord opposite, (Lord John Russell), that the House should resolve itself into Committee upon the Irish Municipal Itelbria Bill. On that motion I intend to give a general statement of my views At present I cannot say whether there is a prospect of the adjustment of this question ; but I do say that I do not intend to take any step which might at all obscure the prospect of a satis. factory adjustment ; and, therefore, I do not mean to move any objection to the motion, that you, Sir, should leave the chair upon that occasion, nor will I prejudice any discussion that may arise upon it. I trust, however, that before we go to this discussion, we shall have an oppor tunity of discussion upon the Irish Tithes resolutions, and that an op. portunity will be given to me of stating my own views upon that subject. Of course, Sir, I can give ne assurance whatever in respect re, divisions which may take place in Committee. Several or my Hon. Friends intend to make several propositions v. ith respect to the provisions of the Bill. I can enter into no engagement whatsoever as to the extent of those pr ipos:tions, nor can I state at what period the difference may take pace, trusting that the general explanation will pre vent any possibility of surprise —that the intonation that there may be divisions in Committee will relieve my Hon. Friends from any possibility of an imputation of having taken the House by surprise. Sir, I regret that we are called upon to consi der these measures at this late period of the Session, —with so many other matters of great importance—but perhaps that can't be avoided. I shall not urge any proposition for farther delay. If, however, the Noble Lord and the House are of opinion that, before we proceed to consider the details of the measure in Committee, it is desireable to have some more formal notice of the na ture of the amendments which we intend to propose, I have no objec tion (without pledging myself to the nature of those objections) to give more formal notice of the amendments which I intend to propose, both in the Corporation and in the Tithe Bill.—(Hear, hear.) Lord JOHN RUSSELL-Sir, the Right Hon. Bart, has rightly understood my intentions as to Cl e Irish Ti t h e Bill. I will now only state farther, that I am not sure whether it will be necessary in the first Committee on the Tithe Bill to sta t p e ro t po he rti T_tT , u u l t ar t a t m h o it u d i c t— it b s e t v t e e ' r l thattetthisor a the resolutionsotiier should merely aff i rm the e l t bi amount— whether e wil expediency of commuting tithe c o mmutation into a rent c h arge, payable by the first estate of inheritance, leaving the particular propor_ lion of the tithe commutation to be settled in the Committee upon the Bill.—( Hear, hear, hear.) As to any further notice, I think it would be better upon' the whole, at this period of the Session, and of the year, to proceed to consider the Corporation Bill in Committe e, and I shall consider the previous speech of the Right Hon. Gent'eman, before the Speaker's leaving the chair, a sufficient notice of the amendments which he prcposes to move in Committee.—(Haar.) Sir, I will only say, in conclusion, I was glad to hear the Right Hon. Baronet say that lie hoped nothing he should propose would mar the pro s p ec t of a final and satisfactory adjustment of these questions, and I cordially reciprocate that hope.—(Hear.) NEGRO SLAVERY. The '.k.loar.r.LOttn then said—lf the Hon. Baronet the Member for Warwickshire (Sir E. Wilmot) had been in his place, I should have asked him whether it was his intention to make any motion for the in troduction of a measure founded on the resolution passed in this House last night. - I now give the House notice, as I shall give the Honourable Baronet, that I shall ask the question to-morrow. LORD'S-DAY BILL. Mr. PLUMPTRE moved the Order of the Day for the House going into Committee on the Lord's-Day Bill, but experienced consi derable difficulty i❑ procuring a Chairman. The chair was at length taken by Sir G. SINCLAIR, amidst shouts of laughter from the Ministerial side of the House. On the first cLuse being proposed, Mr. JERVIS said it was a most preposterous clause, for its tendency was to prevent any work whatever from being done on the Lord's day. A person could not even get his breakfast, or have his bed made, with out violating the provisions of this clause. Mr. PLUMPTRE said he thought that the Hon. and Learned Member must admit that there was a feeling in the country that something should be done in this matter. He was most desirous to obviate the objections of the Hon. Member, and he thought that might be effected by the omission of a few words. He would put it---" Any work in the way of trade—any selling or contracting in the way of trade." He was of opinion, that in accordance with the feeling of the country, something ought to be done, and he was only anxious to proceed by steps. His only object was to suppress trading on the Sunday, and in order to carry ft at into effect he would be glad to receive any. suggestion that was offered bins. Ile was asked if his Bill went to affict travelling? It was not his intention to affect it in any way; and if it was thought a proviso could make that intention more clear, he would not object to it. Mr. JERVIS said the words of the clause went so much further than the intention of the Hen. Gentleman that they could not then proceed with it, he would therefore move that the clause be postponed. Mr. PLUMPTRE trusted the Hon. Gent. would not persevere in that motion, because the postponement of the clause would be in effect the postponement of the Bill. Mr. O'CONNELL said the Honourable Member for Kent had given the best possible reason for its postponement, because he admitted that it was badly worded, and indeed that he had not read it. After all, h e (M r . O'Connell) did not see what necessity there was for the Bill.—(Hear, hear.) There was no country in which the Lord's Day was so decently observed as in thiscountry.—(Cheers.) He did not like discussing the words of this clause, because the Hon. Member had not bound himself to any set of words; and as the Hon. Meirber was not prepared, the House should give him time for prepara tion, by postponing the clause.—(Hear.) Sir E. SUGDEN said if the Bill were allowed to remain as, it at pre sent stood he should vote against it, because he was not pre pared to put restraints upon the poor on Sundays.— (Hear, hear.) He should vote against it, unless it was confined strictly to barter alit trade. He had struck out certain parts of the clause, which lie would show the Honourable Member, and as it then stood, it would apply strictly to what was in common parlance, called trading on a Sunday.—(Hear, hear.) If his Hon. Friend was prepared now to props se such alterations and additions to the Bill as would so limit its operation, then probably the Committee might adjourn, and :hose amendments could be dis cussed at the next sitting. If that were not the case, he should suggest that the •neasure should be postponed. Mr. WARD sal I that it was impossible to alter the Bill so that it should not interfere with the innocent enjoyments of the working classes The word " trading" would extcnd, of course, to trailing in horses, omnibusses, and stearn-boats.—(llear, hear.) Sir EDWARD SUGDENexp'ained. He would not agree to any measure that would deprive the people of innocent recreation on the Sabbath.—(Hear.) He believed that such enjoyments, which were always shared with their families, made risen better hpebands and fathers than they could he made by any law if this kind.—(Cheers.) Sir GEORGE STRICKLAND said, that so far from wishing to deal with this Bill with levity, he considered it a grave subject, and the diffi culty of it increased its gravity. He had listened with great disappoint ment to the attempt of the Hon. Gentleman opposite to give some satis. factory explanation respecting this Bill. He said he would havean excep. tion as to travelling on Sunday. But was that to be the only exception ? A tradesman in London who was confined during the whole week ought to have an opportunity of enjoying some recreation on Sundays. Sup pose an exception to be made in favour of travelling, and he went out in an omnibus, what was he to do when he got to the end of his journey ? If he wanted to go to a house and enjoy the most in nocent of all beveraos, a cup of tea—(Loud laughter and cheers) — he would be prevented from doing so, because this Bill went to prevent all refreshments from being sold on the Sunday.—(Hear, hear.) ' Taking the•gravest view of the subject, and not wishing to restrict the amusement of the lower orders while the rich were allowed to do as they pleased, he would recommend the Hon. Gentleman to withdraw the Bill, for the present, until he could put the clause in a less objec. tionable shape.— (Cheers.) Captain PECHELL said he wished to have some security for the fisheries of the United Kingdom;—(Laughter) ;—for under this Bill it was impossible that any fishing beat could come in with a carro of rosrkesel Sundays.—(Hear, hear, hear, and laughter.) s‘ as the Attorney-General in his place to stand up for the prerogative of the Crown against a Bill which would prevent any ship of war to leave port on Sundays ?—and merchantmen could not even raise their hatches on that clay, Sir E. SUGDEN said, that a ship's leaving port did not come within the definition of trading in this Bill. He recommended that the Bill should now be committeclpro forma, to afford time for the introduc tion of the requisite amendments. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL concurred in the propriety of preventing, if possible, Sunday trading ; but he could not agree to a measure for encroaching on the comforts of the people.—(Hear, hear.) He suggested that the Bill should be withdrawn, and a new one brought in without the objectionable clauses.—(Hear, hear.) A penal measure ought strictly to define what was to be penal, and not be sweeping and general in its provisions.— (Hear, hear.) It was better to leave the observance of the Sabbath to the good feeling of the commu nity.—(Hear.) There was no country in the world where the Sabbath was better observed than in this.—(Hear.) Mr. G. BERKELEY thought, that with respect to bakers especially, the clauses of the Bill would have a most prejudicial effect. Mr. PLUMPTRE said that it was extremely unpleasant for a private individual like bimself to have the charge of a Bill of this nature. If the feelings expressed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the course of last session, together with those of the Attorney. General, were sincere, it would be his most hearty wish that they would take the matter into their serious consideration, as a measure like the present would come far better from the Government than from any private individual. If they could give him any hope that they would bring forward a measure for the suppression of Sunday trading in the next Session, he would with. draw the Bill altogether. No doubt there was a strong feeling in the country that something should be done.—(Cheers.) He was in hopes that the House would have gone calmly into the consi deration of the clauses of the Bill. It ceitainly, however, was useless for him to go on against the sense of the House.—(Cheers.) If it were the wish of the: House, he would proceed with:the clause— (No, no,)—if not, he could not proceed with a majority against him. Mr. SHAW suggested that the Bill should go through the Committee pro forma, and be reprinted in another form. It was suggested by those of more experience, that the proper course would be for the Chairman to report progress, and have the Bill altered. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had very consider able doubts whether the Bill could be so limited as to boizome practicable : if he thought it could be, he would have much pleasure in supporting it. Because he entertained those fears he could not, either for himself or on the part of others, charge himself with the re sponsibility of the Bill. tie believed the object which the Hon. Member had in view was rather to be attained by moral effects than legislation.—(Hear, hear, hear.) He believed the progress of opinion at the preient moment was strongly in favour of .0! the practical objects which the Hon. Member sought to effect by his Bill, and he was unwilling to restrain the progress of opinion when be saw it flowing in a proper direction. If the Bill could be put into a shape consistent with the opinions he had expressed he should be ready to support it either in the Committee or elsewhere; but he so much despaired of ever attaining the object, that he for one would not undertake the responsibility of introducing such a measure. Sir ROBERT PEEL entirely concurred with what had fallen from the Right Honourable Chancellor of the Exchequer, and he agreed with the Right Honourable Gentleman that the public dis cussion of this question had been attended with evil. But that was owing to the temper in which the discussions had been carried on. He objected to legislation upon questions of this kind, because he wished to avoid giving rise to vexatious litigation between neigh bours, and interference with peculiar religious opinions. He advised his Honourable Friend to make his enactments as pre cise as possible, and to avoid the necessity of exceptions, which would have the effect of a legislative sanction for the pro fanation of the Sabbath. He (Sir Robert Peel) thought that it was desirable to put a stop to fairs and markets upon the Sunday, and also to the opening of shops on the part of a few in particular trades, when public convenience did not require it.—(Hear, hear.) It was intrinsically unjust that restrictions upon recreation should be imposed on the poor which were not imposed upon the rich.—(Hear, hear.) He advised the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Plumptre) to withdraw the Bill.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. PLUMPTRE was willing to accede to the wishes of the House. —(Hear, hear, and cheers.) He accordingly withdrew the Bill The House resumed, and the Bill was withdrawn. DEAN FOREST MINES BILL. This Bill went through Committee. SPIRIT LICENSES (SCOTLAND) BILL. Mr. GILLON moved that this Bill he now read a second time. Mr. HOPE opposed the motion, and said that at present the law In Scotland was similar to that which exited in England, and there was no good reason for making any alteration in it. He therefore moved that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr. GILLON said that at present the spirit-dealer in Scotland was obliged to submit to the annual degradation of going about soliciting testimonials of character, which put him to a great expense in travelling from one town to another to obtain the magistrate's approbation; and that it often happened that he was refused his license because some ma gistrate on the bench had a public house in the same neighbourhood. Now the object of the present Bill was to give the spirit-dealer the power of obtaining a license from the Excise-office, and having ob taMed that license, it should be sufficient to entitle him to a magis trate's license. He was for separating the revenue from the excise laws, and he hoped that the House would allow the Bill to be read a second time Mr. PRINGLE said that the Bill was unnecessary, and that no case had, in his opinion, been made out in its favour. It was not called for by the inhabitants of Scotland, and he cordially supported the amendment. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that he thought some of the arguments against the Bill had been formed upon a miscon. ception of the clauses. Undoubtedly the mere licensing was a question of revenue alone ; but it was expedient that the character of persons applying the first time for licences to sell spirits should be ascertained. '1 he Bill lett the law as it at present stood, upon the first grant of the licence; and by leaving this power it was clear that no eflective super intendence was intended to be taken away from the magistrates ; nor did the Bill render the licence peretanent—it only allowed persons, having since obtained a licence, to hold it till delinquency had been .shown on their part. Now, however, they were liable to great inconvenience by coming from distant parts to obtain an annual renewal. He affirmed only the principle on the second reading, and he was willing to correct any errors in the details. Sir GEORGE CLERK said that the Right Hon. Gentleman's rea sons would apply equally to the law in England as in Scotland, and it was well known how difficult it was to procure a conviction for disor derly conduct. He trusted, therefore, that gentlemen acting as Justices of the Peace in England would not consent to any alteration for Scot land which they would not approve of for England, and that they would not be led away by the statements of the Right Hon. Gentleman. Mr. R. STi - iIIART said that this was not a proposal for a new law; four years ago the same alteration .had been made in Ireland, and it had been found to work well. The present system was produc tive o f great hardships, and he hoped that the House would consent to the second reading. Mr. LOCKHART briefly supported the amendment, as the Bill was generally objected to by the people of Scotland. Mr. MACLEOD had frequently seen the hardships of the present system. He thought that there was sufficient security in the certificate of character on the first grant of the license, and in the power of taking that license away on any subsequevit misconduct, and tie, therefore, sup. potted the Bill. The House then divided, when the numbers were— For the second reading Fur the amendment ... Majority for the Bill The Bill was then a read a second time. SPIRITUOUS LIQUORS SALE BILL. -11 Mr. GILLON having moved the second reading of this Bill, Sir a CLF.RK hoped to have the assistance of Hon. Gentlemen op. polite in opposing this Bill, as it applied to all parts of Britain, and re peared the old law preventing publicans from recovering, by summary process, small debts incurred for the purchase of liquors. The altera tion would promote drunkenness and immorality. He therefore moved that the Bill be read a se rood time that day six months. Mr. It. STEUART, in the absence of the Under Secretary for the Home Department, seconded the amendment. He was opposed to giv ing additional facilities for recovering sm a ll d e b ts incurred for tippling. Mr. GILLON said that the original Act of George 11. was in tended only for publicans, but it had been extended to retailers of wine and spirits, with whom debts amounting to 201, might be run up, which could not be recovered. The operation of the present law was to add swindling to tippling, and he knew an instance in which a party, having run up a bill of Bil/. for spirits supplied to him, pleaded the Tip pling Act. If the Bill were react a second time, lie was willing to con fine its operation to spirits and wine consumed off the premises ; and he hoped, as it would not increase immorality or intemperance, that it would be allowed to go into Commitbze. Mr. O'CONNELL had a tact to state which appeared to him to be of importance its the consideration of this Bill. Before the Combination Committee the Sheriff of Lanark had stated that, as publicans could not give credit, the workmen parted with all their ready money to discharge the publicans' charges, whilst they ran into debt for necessaries, and, of course, got smaller quantities of necessary articles in consequence of being obliged to obtain credit ; so that the operation of the present law, instead of restraining the pe;Ve from drinking, operated only to increase l the misery of the working classes, who could get good spirits for ready money and had articles upon credit. Mr. LOUKHA It brielly opposed UP.? Mr. HUME hoped that the House would not proceed ou the old rule of endeavouring to make the people moral and virtuous by the Act of Parliament; and when it was remembered that the liquors in Scotland were sold in shops in the same manner as sugar and other articles, for which credit wes given, he thought that the House would allow the mea sure to go into Committee. Mr. PEASE said that he would not oppose the Bill, if there was a distinct undertanding that its operation should be rests icted to quan tities of two gallons, and not less. He knew that as the Bill now stood this was not the case, and the effect would be to impoverish the wives and the children of the workmen; but although the Hon. Member for Dublin had stated that the workmen now paid ready money for their liquors, and thus impoverished themselves, ye: if this Bill passed as it stood, they might drink just as much upon credit, and waste their ready money also. He would not, however, support the second reading, ex cept on the express understanding that it should be limited to spirits sold off the premises, in quantities of two gallons. After a few words from Mr. PRINGLE, the House divided : For the second reading Against it 59 Majority against the 8i11... ......... —43 MEDICAL CHARITIES (IRELAND) BILL. This Bill went through Committee pro forma, and was ordered to be re-committed this day fortnight. CUSTODY OF INFANTS BILL. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD moved the third reading of the Custody of Infants Bill. Sir E. B. SUGDEN opposed the Bill, not from any desire to limit the power of the mother, but rather because she already had, under the ex isting law, even a greater power over her children than would be con ferred on her under this measure. The Bill would be exceedingly in jurious in its effects oil public society, because it was calculated to pro duce quarrels, and to facilitate the separation of husband and wife; and he believed that if it should pass, its proper title would be " A Bill to facilitate the Divorce and Separation of Husband and Wife." It was calculated besides to produce no beneficial effect in reference to the chil dren, but, on the contrary, by giving rise to quarrels between their pa rents and to dissatisfaction, was likely to increase the difficulties which already existed in reference to their case, for they would be brought up in that most unnatural state that they would entertain no respect for either of their parents.—(Hear, hear.) The Right Hon. Baronet con cluded by moving that the Bill should be read a third time that day six months. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD addressed the House in opposition to the amendment. Mr. LANGDALE opposed the third reading, as he thought that if the Bill passed it would tend to weaken the marriage tie, and go far to promote a general system of divorce. In case of temporary separation in consequence of momentary irritation between man and wife, the passing of this Bill would tend to prevent any reconciliation, as a wife could claim of right interviews with her children. It was for the benefit of the children themselves that he felt anxious that this Bill should not pass. Mr. PRAED felt called upon to support the Bill, berausc he antici pated that it would lead to directly the contrary result that was antici pated from it by the Hon. Gentleman who spoke last. Mr. W ARBURTON thought it inexpedient, looking to the advan tage of th:, offspring, that this Bill should pass into a law. The giving the mother the right of unrestrained intercourse with her children might affbrd her the opportunity of enlisting them as her partisans against the injured husband. He was aware that this was not the popular view of the question, either in the House or out of it, but he felt it Isis duty to state what was his conscientious opinion Mr. LEADER warmly supported the Bill. The present state of the law on the subject was most harsh and cruel to the wife, and most in jurious, in the greater number of cases, to the children. The House then divided. The numbers were— For the third reading 6O Against it Majority The Bill was then read a third time and passed. SALE OF BREAD (IRELAND) BILL. This Bill went through a Committee.—Report on Friday. HACKNEY CARRIAGES (METROPOLIS) BILL. On the question that the Report on this Bill be further considered, An HON. MEMBER moved that the House be counted. Forty Mem- , bers, however, being present, Sir M. WOOD again moved that the House go into Committee on the Bill. Colonel SIBTHORP opposed the motion He objected to the Bill in tote. The penalties to be inflicted were altogether too small. Sir M. WOOD said the great complaint in other quarters was that the penalties were too heavy. Alderman COPELAND said some Bill on this subject was loudly called for. Mr R. STEUART thought it better in the present state of the House for the Hon. Alderman to postpone his Bill. He himself was quite fa' vourable to a measure on the subject. The motion was then postponed to Wednesday next. BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS BILL. On the motion of Mr. O'CONNELL this Bill was read a second time. The other Orders of the Day were then agreed to, and the House ad journed at half-past Ten o'Clock. TAFF VALE A ILWAY.-ThiS Company, in pursuance of the provisions of their Act of Parliament for making their intended Railway from Merthyr to Cardiff, caused a Jury to be summoned on Thursday, May 3, to assess the compensation to be paid to several landowners, over whose property the intended railway is in tended to pass.—Silurian. ALARMING ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER.- Monday morning about eleven o'clock, the Rajas Than, an East India ship from Canton, laden with teas, arrived in the river, and came up to the St. Katharine Dock for the purpose of delivering her cargo. On her arrival off the Dock entrance the stearn-tug which had towed her up the river left her, and she was about to bring up at the Doc% buoy pre vious to being hauled through the lock, when, in consequence of her not having been checked in time, and the anchor which was lowered coming home, owing to the looseness of the soil, the ship, which had considerable way upon her, was carried against the upper tier of steam ships and vessels, about a hundred yards west of the Dock entrance. The collision was most fearful, and the Rajas Thun came upon them with such velocity, and the tide was running up so fast, that the whole tier, consisting of the Antwerp, Royal Adelaide, and Plea:nix steam ships, a brig called the Ron Accord, and another vessel, were dragged from their moorings and cast adrift in the midst of a crowded pool. A large vessel laden with 35 tons cf coal, belonging to Mr. Thomas Edwards, a lighterman, which was lying alongside the tier, was instantly sunk by the collision, and the bowsprits, heads, and bul warks of the Antwerp and the Royal Adelaide were carried away, the splinters flying ill all directions. The Bon Accord lost her jibboom at the same time by the shock, and drifted as far as the ordnance ware houses at the eastern end of the Tower wharf, where she grounded. The steamers floated as far as the Newcastle tier off Irongate stairs, one coming right athwart the vessels moored there, and the other half athwart, doing themselves and the Newcastle colliers considerable da mage. The Rajas Than having cleared the pier, went right in, head first, to Irongate-stairs. Here her forefoot cau;iit the ground, and she canted round and stuck fast off the plying-place. This caused the greatest alarm, and much anxiety for the safety of the ship and her cargo. The ground being very hard at this spot, it was feared, from the position in which the ship laid, that she could not be got off before she had broken her back and gone to pieces. Fortunately, however, the dock master and his assistants immediately brought three steam-vessels into requisition, including the one that towed the ship up the stream. Ropes were soon made fast to the Rajas Thun, and attached to the steamers, and their united power, together with the services of the dockmed, were ap plied to get the ship off: For upwards of an hour they were unable to move her, but just before high water the exertions of the people were redoubled, the steamers dragged hard at the ship, and, after the most strenuous efforts, she just came off the ground, and was soon afloat in deep water. The only damage she appears to have sustained in her upper works is the breaking of the lower swinging boom and the crane in which it was fixed. She was soon afterwards hauled into dock, and the labourers immediately commenced discharging her cargo. Respecting the grand Radical demonstration which was fixed for Monday, the 21st., we have been furnished with the following particulars :—Letters are in town from Col. Thompson, and both he and Mr. Roebuck are expected to he r resent. The most active ex ertions are making among the female Radicals for a grand display on their p.irt. There are from four to six thousand power-loom weavers, of whom about three thousand are expected to join the procession—ranged under the direction of the tenters and dressers of the respective works in which they are employed. Invitations are to be sent also to straw bonnet makers and females employed at other branches of industry, either to join the procession or to attend the banquet, And accommo dation for females is to be provided on the hustings in the Green. The proprietor of a factory at the Town Head, we learn, has presented the females employed at his work, of whom there are about two hundred, with a splendid silk flag, and the Union Band have tendered their services to the females gratuitously, Mr. Collins, on Saturday, addressed a meeting at Canniesburn Toll of nearly five thousand people from Duntocher, Milngavie, Maryhill, and other districts, and on Wednesday harangued a large meeting at Par_ tick ; and .it both places he was most enthusiastically received. About three thousand colliers, we are told, are to join the demonstration. The refreshments at the Banquet are to consist of sandwiches, a pint of wine each, and fruits.—Glasgow Chronicle. At the last meeting of the, Statistical Society, the Alhenceuni states, a documetit was presented by the President of the Board of Trade, consisting of a series of agricultural queries, and 27 re turns to the same, from the county of Bedford, in the year 1836. It appears that Mr. P. Thomson had prepared a paper of 52 compre hensive agricultural queries calculated to elicit accurate information o❑ the productive powers of the soil of this country, and of the degree and manner in which they are drawn forth ; and beginning with the county of Bedford, the first in the alphabetical list, he transmitted copies, ac companied with a circular letter, to all the resident clergy of the county, but, out of 136 clergymen, only 27 furnished any returns, and the in. quiry was abandoned. What a satire on the clergy of England, and how it contrasts with the conduct of the Presbyterian clergy in the North ! Some forty years ago a private individual (Sir John Sinclair) wrote similar circulars to all the clergy of Scotland; they complied al most unanimously, and enabled him to publish a work of great interest and utility, and to contribute, not a little, to the rapid progress which agriculture has made in that part of the country. But there is a more sad contrast still. Sir John Sinclair united with the clergy of Scotland in teaching the working population the arts of peace; and his son, in conjunction with one who professes himself the friend of the same class, unites with a prirtion of the clergy of England in inflaming political and religions animosity, and in teaching Protestants and Catholics to hate each other with " perfect hatied." STAG HUNT EXTRAORDINARY. —Last week Mr. J. Cannicote, of Stibbeer Farm, near Ilminster, in passing through a field adjoining his house, started a fine stag, which it is supposed had escaped from the park of some gentleman in the neighbourhood. Mounting his fleetest nag, he immediately gave chase, with the animal right a.hcad, and two sheep-dogs at his heels; numberless were the ad ventures and "hair-breadth 'stapes" which he met with in following the stag from Stibbeer to Donnyatt, crossing the stream on to Horton, thence to the park of W. Spoke, Esq., at Jordan, through that part.of Ilton to Whitelackinton-copse, where it was ultimately shot by the gamekeeper of J. Lee, Esq., who had joined in the chase a short time before its termination. A gentleman of Glastonbury town left his home at two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, for Bristol, arrived these at six o'clock, remained there one hour, and at seven proceeded to Birming ham, where he arrived at six in the morning, rested there one hour, left for Liverpool by the rail -road at seven, arrived there . at eleven, had three hours for business, quitted at two, arrived in Birmingham at six in the evening, remained there one hour, and at seven left for Bristol, where he arrived at six in the morning ; thus accomplishing the journey from Bristol to Liverpool, and back to Bristol (a distance of 365 miles) i n 33 hours, having occupied five hours in transacting business. Ile was Only 30 hours on the road. - -Somerset County Gazette. An application has beets made to the Government to extend the Thames Police to Grcenhithe, near Gravesend, Kent, where from the custom that has for some time prevailed of mooring col liers waiting their turn to come into the pool, the want of protection for the property in the river there, and the general disorderly habits of the seamen ashore, which the local authorities at Greenhithe are unable to check, such a force is much required to prevent robberies and out rages. The Thames Police Magistrates, to whom the subject ha.; been referred, have forwarded a report on the subject to the Home.olfice, and it is believed that a Thdines Police station will be established at or near Greenhithe, on the condition of the inhabitants ! caring some portion of the expense. Six Police Galleys, each containing a surveyor and three river constables, are at present constantly on duty between Wool wich and Wandsworth.
